Chapter 1

Kenshin's death and rebirth.

Kenshin is on his way home from the war. The unknown incurable disease is taking it's toll on him. Kaoru has the disease Kenshin has. But she's not as bad as Kenshin. Speaking of Kenshin he's slowly walking down a path lined with blooming cherry blossom trees. At the dojo Kenji, Yahiko, and Ms. Megumi are keeping an eye on Kaoru. Kaoru is taking a turn for the worse. Right now Kenji, Yahiko, and Ms. Megumi are somewhere in the dojo. Something is telling Kaoru to get out of bed. So she got out of bed and slowly left the dojo. Her feeling lead her the path. There she saw Kenshin struggling to stay on his feet. Kaoru went up to him as fast as she could.

As she got close to him Kenshin collapsed into her arms. Kaoru caught Kenshin and she sat on the grass with his head on her lap. The woman said "When you get better we should have a cherry blossom viewing party." She got worried when Kenshin didn't answer her. So she checked for a pulse. Kaoru started crying because she can't feel a pulse. An hour later Kenji and Yahiko buried Kenshin. After paying their respects Ms. Megumi helped Kaoru walk back to the dojo. Now it's 2005 and three different thoroughbred mares. Living on three different farms are pregnant. The first mare is a chestnut named Azeri and her foal's sire is Smarty Jones.

Next is a dark day mare named Storm Flag Flying and her foal's sire is Tiznow. Finally the last mare is a bay named Serena's Song. And her foal's sire is Real Quiet. Right now it's mis March and it's foaling season. Speaking of foals Serena's Song has given birth. The bay mare has had a filly with a white spot on her forehead. Her name is Quiet Son and she's a big bay. Serena's Song's owners are defiantly going to keep the filly. It's now April 8th and it's a stormy night. Storm Flag Flying has just given birth to a big colt. The colt has been named Tiz Storming thanks to the weather. And his marking which is a white spot in the shape of cloud and a bolt of lightning.

For now his baby fur is brown he could become black or back bay. It's now April 20th and Azeri has given birth. She has had a small chestnut colt. The little colt has a white marking in the shape of an X on his left check. Usually thoroughbreds have markings on their face or forehead. Azeri's owner looked at the little foal and said "Don't name him just give him a number. And we'll sell at the weanling sale." The number they gave the colt is 1579. 15 is the number his sire Smarty Jones wore in the Kentucky Derby. 7 is the number he had in the Preakness. And 9 is the number he had in the Belmont. One month later the colt is lead outside for the first time. All day long he and Azeri where in the pasture. He stayed right next to his mother.

The stable hands kind of like the little colt. Some of them can't believe that the owner is going to get rid of. The son of Smarty Jones and Azeri. When Azeri raced she was great. And when Smarty Jones raced he won some major grade 1 races. He even won two of the three triple races. Two months later 1579 is out in the pasture with Azeri. He's gotten bigger but he's still small. Next month he'll be weaned from his mother then sold the week after that.

Right now the foal is running around the pasture with the other foals. Even though he's been showing promise as a racehorse when he grows up. The owner is still going sell him with some of the other foals. Soon he out ran the foals and ran by his mother. Azeri snorted and raced after her son. Soon mother and son are running side by side. To bad they'll be separated forever. A month has passed and it's a noisy day. And that's because the foals are being weaned from their mothers. So the mares are calling to their babies which are being kept on the other sire of the farm. So Azeri is calling to her son. He has shed into a red chestnut coat but is still small. The owner will give the weanlings a week to calm down. Then he'll separate the weanlings he's keeping from the once he's selling.

Even though the stable hands have grown attached to 1579 the owner is still going to sell him. What they don't know is that, 1579 will be bought by good people and he'll receive a good name. A week later the stable hands watched as 1579 was loaded into a trailer with other weanlings. Soon the stable hands watched as the truck pulling the trailer left the farm. The truck took the weanlings to Lexington Kentucky. Once at the auction house the weanlings were unloaded and put into stalls. They'll be checked over by a vet before the sale in four days.
